The Holdovers is a 2023 American Christmas comedy drama film directed by Alexander Payne and written by David Hemingson. Set in 1970, the film stars Paul Giamatti as a strict classics teacher at a New England boarding school who is forced to chaperone a handful of students with nowhere to go on the Christmas break. Da'Vine Joy Randolph portrays the school cafeteria manager, and Dominic Sessa plays one of the students who stays on campus.

Filming took place from January to March 2022 in Massachusetts. The Holdovers premiered at the 50th Telluride Film Festival on August 31, 2023, and was released in the United States by Focus Features on October 27, 2023. It received positive reviews and has grossed over $45 million. It was named one of the top 10 films of 2023 by the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute, and received many other accolades, including two wins at the Golden Globe Awards and the British Academy Film Awards; Randolph won the Best Supporting Actress award at both ceremonies. The Holdovers also received five nominations at the 96th Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for Giamatti; Randolph won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Plot

[edit]

In December 1970, Paul Hunham is a teacher at Barton Academy, a New England all-male boarding school that he once attended on scholarship. His students and fellow teachers despise him for his strict grading and stubborn personality. Dr. Woodrup, Barton's headmaster and Hunham's former student, scolds him for costing the academy money by flunking a major donor's son, causing Princeton University to rescind his offer of admission. As punishment, Hunham is forced to supervise five students left on campus during the holiday break, including Angus Tully, whose mother cancelled a family trip to Saint Kitts to honeymoon with her new husband. Also staying behind is cafeteria manager Mary Lamb, whose late son, Curtis, attended Barton and recently died in the Vietnam War after being drafted. Unlike most Barton students, Curtis did not get a student deferment because he could not afford to go to college. To the students' chagrin, Hunham forces them to study and exercise on their break. After six days, a student's wealthy father arrives by helicopter and agrees to take all five students on the family's ski trip with their parents' permission. Angus, unable to reach his parents for permission, is left alone at Barton with Hunham and Mary.

When Hunham catches Angus trying to book a hotel room, the two argue about Hunham's disciplinarian policies. Angus runs through the school halls and defiantly leaps into a pile of gym equipment, dislocating his shoulder. Hunham takes Angus to the hospital. To protect Hunham from blame, Angus lies to the doctors about the circumstances of his injury. At a restaurant, Hunham and Angus encounter Lydia Crane, Woodrup's assistant. Hunham flirts with Lydia, who invites the pair to her Christmas Eve party. Angus, Hunham, Mary and Barton's janitor, Danny, attend Lydia's party where Angus kisses Lydia's niece, Elise. Hunham discovers that Lydia has a boyfriend, and Mary gets drunk and has an emotional breakdown over Curtis' death. Hunham insists on leaving early; as Hunham and Angus argue, Angus says that his father is dead and Mary scolds Hunham for his unsympathetic behavior.

Feeling remorseful, Hunham arranges a small Christmas celebration. Mary persuades Hunham to grant Angus' wish for a "field trip" to Boston. After dropping off Mary in Roxbury to spend time with her pregnant sister, Angus and Hunham walk through Boston, ice skate and visit the Museum of Fine Arts. The two encounter a classmate of Hunham's from Harvard College, who has become a successful academic. Hunham lies about his career, and Angus plays along. Angus learns that Hunham was expelled from Harvard after a legacy donor's son accused him of plagiarism and Hunham semi-deliberately hit him with a car.[5] Although the incident nearly ruined Hunham's career prospects, the old Barton headmaster took pity on him and offered him an adjunct teaching job.

When Hunham and Angus see a movie at the Orpheum Theatre, Angus sneaks away and Hunham catches him entering a taxi. Angus explains that he wants to see his father, and Hunham agrees to accompany him, assuming that they are going to a cemetery. However, Angus's father is alive and confined in a psychiatric hospital. Following the visit, Angus (who takes medication for depression) expresses concern that his future behavior will echo his father's. Hunham comforts Angus, affirming that Angus is not the same person as his father. Hunham, Angus, Mary and Danny celebrate New Year's Eve together.

In January, when school resumes, Hunham is summoned to Woodrup's office; Angus' mother and stepfather are there. They tell Hunham that Angus is not allowed to see his father and that a snowglobe Angus gave to him led to a violent outburst. Angus' mother and stepfather threaten to withdraw Angus from Barton and send him to a military academy. However, Hunham defends Angus and blames himself, lying that he persuaded Angus to visit his father. Woodrup allows Angus to remain at Barton but fires Hunham.

Mary, who has come to better terms with Curtis' death, gives Hunham a notebook for the monograph he wants to write. Hunham and Angus share a farewell. In his car, Hunham takes a sip of the expensive cognac he stole from Woodrup's office, spits it out toward the school, and drives away.

Development

[edit]
Director Alexander Payne

The Holdovers is the second collaboration between director Alexander Payne and actor Paul Giamatti after Sideways (2004). Payne conceived it after watching Marcel Pagnol's 1935 film Merlusse,[9] and contacted screenwriter David Hemingson, whose boarding-school television pilot he had read.[10] In 2018, Hemingson was running his show, Whiskey Cavalier for ABC and was surprised to receive a call from Payne. The television pilot, Stonehaven, was set in present time, but Payne suggested a film using an older setting instead like 1958 or 1970. Hemingson agreed on 1970 because it had more in common with the present time and 1958 was too close to Dead Poets Society's timeline.[11] In 2024, Hemingson revealed that the film is partially semi-autobiographical, with some of the dialogue and scenes taken verbatim from his own life, such as words from his own real-life uncle. The scene with the sex worker was inspired by a real-life incident that he said actually "happened to me on First Avenue and 30th Street with [my uncle] when I was seven years old. This woman walked up on an incredibly cold day and solicited and said, 'The kid can wait around the corner.' That is an actual incident from my life. The cherries jubilee thing is something that happened to me with my mother. So many of the things in the movie are just a love letter to my mom and my uncle and my dad."[12] In June 2021, Miramax acquired the distribution rights.[13] In early 2022, Da'Vine Joy Randolph and Carrie Preston joined the cast.[14][15]

Filming

[edit]

Filming began in Massachusetts on January 27, 2022, and wrapped in late March.[16][17][18] Location manager Kai Quinlan, who had worked on other films set in New England like Spotlight and Black Mass, drew on her Massachusetts upbringing for the film.[19] Similarly, Giamatti drew on his experience attending Choate Rosemary Hall in the 1980s, including his memories of a strict teacher whom he described as "not a happy man."[20] To create the fictional Barton Academy, the film crew shot on location at five real-life Massachusetts schools: Groton School (the chapel and the Nashua River), Northfield Mount Hermon School (the chapel and building exteriors), Deerfield Academy (the front lawn and building exteriors), St. Mark's School (the dining hall, gymnasium, and headmaster's office), and Fairhaven High School (the study hall and auditorium).[21][22] To play prep school student Angus, Payne cast Deerfield student Dominic Sessa; it was Sessa's first film role.[23] The film crew also shot at the historic Somerville and Orpheum theatres and on the Boston Common. Payne later said that capturing the 1970s aesthetic was relatively easy because "change comes slowly to New England".[24]

Cinematography and post-production

[edit]

To make the film look and feel like it was actually made during the 1970s, Alexander Payne hired Eigil Bryld to serve as cinematographer and camera operator. On being selected, Bryld remarked "There's a sense of a spirit of the '70s movies — breaking away from your studios. And all the DPs of the period that I really admired would push the film stock or they would do handheld or whatever. And then I started thinking, 'That's really what I should be going for.'" Both digital and film formats were tested prior to filming, before it was decided to shoot the film digitally with an Arri Alexa with Panavision H series lenses, particularly a 55mm lens, creating a "vintage portrait look." "It's a movie about people who are forced into the frame together, and they don't necessarily want to be in the same frame," Bryld added. "Gradually over time, they come together more and more ... And that was one arc we were looking for — how we would reflect that, how we framed it and where we put the camera." Film emulsion and color grading were added to the footage during post-production to complete the look.[25]

The crew added to the film's 1970s stylization by creating a retro-style title card and logo variants for Focus Features and Miramax to open the film. Graphic designer Nate Carlson, who worked with Payne on Election (1999), was responsible for creating these, using the film's color palette from the set designs and visual style, as well as inspiration from the way film studio logos looked in the 1970s, to make them look as authentic and true to the time period as possible. Although the film's international prints (distributed by Universal Pictures) could simply use the 1963 Universal logo to open the film, neither Focus Features nor Miramax (the American distributor and production company) existed in the 1970s, so Carlson had to invent an original symbol for Focus Features (that involved lowercase "ff" initials with animated text moving into place on a red background) and a looped zoom-in animation for Miramax. Film emulsion was then added to make the logos look realistic for the time period. Miramax was so enthusiastic about Carlson's take on their logo that it hired him to design the studio's new permanent logo for their future films, debuting with Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2023) and The Beekeeper (2024). For the film's title card, Carlson kept things simple, using a custom font of his own design while staying in line with Payne's vision. He also designed the crest for Barton Academy and created two versions, one dating back to the 1800s to reflect its history and a modern, updated version.[26]

Music

Reception

[edit]

Box office

[edit]

The Holdovers grossed $20.4 million in the United States and Canada and $25 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $45.4 million.[3][4]

The film made $211,093 from six theaters in its opening weekend, an average of $35,082 per venue.[37] It expanded to 64 theaters in its second weekend, making $599,833.[38] It then made $3.2 million from 778 theaters in its third weekend.[39] Continuing to expand, it made $2.7 million in both its fourth and fifth weekends.[40][41] Following its five Oscar nominations, the film expanded from 127 theaters to 1,262 in its 14th week of release and made $520,000, an increase of 568% from the previous weekend.[42]

Critical response

[edit]
Paul Giamatti and Da'Vine Joy Randolph garnered critical acclaim for their performances as Paul Hunham and Mary Lamb, and received Academy Award nominations for Best Actor and Supporting Actress, respectively, with Randolph winning.

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 97% of 360 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.5/10. The website's consensus reads: "Beautifully bittersweet, The Holdovers marks a satisfying return to form for director Alexander Payne."[43] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 82 out of 100, based on 61 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[44] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale, while those polled by PostTrak gave it an 80% overall positive score.[41]

Wesley Morris of The New York Times praised Giamatti's performance and Payne's direction, writing: "Even as the story accrues the heft of personal tragedy, each scene seems to float or bob."[45] Patrick Ryan, writing for USA Today, compared it to Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life, noting that both films grapple with troubled pasts and shattered dreams at Christmastime.[46] Critics have also compared it to the films of Hal Ashby, such as Harold and Maude and The Last Detail.[47][48]

Reviews in The Boston Globe and Boston.com both praised the film's 1970s New England setting.[48][49] Ann Hornaday of The Washington Post wrote that it "doesn't only have the look and feel of that time period, it resuscitates the finest elements of its narrative traditions".[50] Richard Brody, writing for The New Yorker, described The Holdovers as "a pile of clichés", but one realized "with such loving immediacy that it feels as if Payne were discovering them for himself". Brody was more critical of the time period, arguing that the "hermetically sealed, historically reduced drama" ignored the politically fraught setting of the 1970s.[51] Nonetheless, Michael Schulman, another writer for The New Yorker, included Giamatti, Sessa and Randolph in his list of the year's best performances, and considered the last "in a prime position for the Best Supporting Actress race".[52]

Justin Chang of the Los Angeles Times praised the film's "enveloping sense of time and place", but as a whole, criticized it as "a flat, phony, painfully diagrammatic movie masquerading as a compassionate, humane one". Chang also wrote that Mary Lamb, despite Randolph's affecting performance, was "somehow the movie's most under-developed role".[47]

Filmmaker James Gray praised the film, saying: "The film takes place in 1970, the first year of American history's greatest hangover. And the rhythms and look, precisely rendered, lend a bracing authenticity to the proceedings. More important, the movie recalls vividly both that era's glorious dreams and the stinging cost of idealism. These lonely souls may seem doomed, but they're still trying. And though bearing witness may not always be pretty, it is beautiful. So is The Holdovers."[53]

Plagiarism accusation

[edit]

In March 2024, Variety reported that screenwriter Simon Stephenson had lodged a complaint with the Writers Guild of America, accusing the film's screenplay of plagiarizing an unproduced script he wrote titled Frisco.[2] Stephenson said that Payne had been sent his script on at least two occasions in the 2010s, and accused Hemingson's final script of being "forensically identical" to his, alleging similarities in "story, characters, structure, scenes [and] dialogue" across the "meaningful entirety" of the film.[2] Frisco producer Tom McNulty questioned Stephenson's claims.[54]

Accolades

[edit]
